Pool Areas and Beach
The resort is built for pool days. There are two large outdoor freshwater pools, including one with an integrated children’s section, so families can splash together. A separate aqua park area features multiple slides – including the headline-grabbing King Cobra slide, one of the biggest and longest in Turkey – plus a dedicated kids’ splash zone.
In cooler months, you’ve got an indoor saltwater pool with a children’s section, and at least one heated outdoor pool operating across the winter season (dates weather dependent). Loungers, parasols and fresh pool towels are complimentary, and there are baby-changing facilities by the main pools.
Stroll a few steps further and you’re on the hotel’s own sand-and-pebble beach, lined with sunbeds, parasols and chill-out areas. This is Lara at its best: flat, family-friendly and perfect for paddling or trying watersports run locally along the shoreline.
Spa, Sports and Other Facilities
Wellness and activity are both taken seriously here. The spa combines a traditional Turkish bath with sauna, steam room and a wide menu of massages and beauty treatments, plus an on-site hairdresser (extra charges apply). It’s a serene contrast to the lively pool and aqua park areas.
The air-conditioned gym is properly equipped, with cardio machines, free weights, fixed strength equipment and a stretching zone, open roughly 08:00–20:00. Organised activities include aerobics and aqua aerobics, basketball, darts, mini-golf, petanque, squash, table tennis, tennis, volleyball and yoga — so you can be as active or relaxed as you feel each day.
